Today, it’s getting harder and harder to drive without fear of being flashed. Because while it’s obvious that we should respect the Traffic Rules and speed limits, we all show a moment of inattention at times. Most of the time it goes unnoticed and there are no radars or police to enlighten us. But for the past few years, the government has wanted to speed up the development of cabs so as not to miss any deviation. This is why we have deployed private radar cars that now drive almost all over France and are almost impossible to detect.

An automatic speed camera on the RD 137 in St Sulpice d’Arnoult has been scaring drivers in recent days by flashing as they obeyed the speed limit!
This radar was undergoing maintenance. Therefore, there will be no verbalization. Thanks to the whistleblowers!

never in town

And the problem with these vehicles is that they are absolutely everywhere, and they can flash you without you even noticing. On highways, of course, but also on state and departmental roads. To tell the truth, we are not safe anywhere. indeed? Not according to ONISR report, the state institution for road safety. Because looking at the roadblock distribution map as shown on the website Radars-Auto.com, we understand that cars do not go everywhere. And especially in the city. In Nantes, for example, they never go beyond the ring road without going into urban areas.

Simple reason

But this is not the only recorded case, as in all cases private speed cameras never report in cities, even if they are crossed from time to time. But why ? Simply because their on-board system is not calibrated to register violations zones are limited to 50 km/h. It doesn’t stop you from being careful, because the police are still watching the grain, especially with mobile radars or binoculars!
